New York : the holding period scales with the item's value: the more it is worth, the longer the police must keep it. A finder must deposit an item worth $20 or more at a police station within 10 days. (New York Personal Property Law §§252-253)

How ReportLost Works
You submit your details
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We handle the facts, photos, and specifics so you don't have to repeat yourself across five different places.
We route it to the right channels
Your report goes directly to Hudson Police, City Hall, Dutchess County Transit, and local lost and found groups. We make sure the right people know about your loss on day one.
Your report keeps searching for you
While you go about your life, your report automatically checks new posts in community groups, transit offices, and local channels for matches. You get alerted if something credible surfaces, so you're not refreshing Facebook groups every single day.
Where Your Lost Item Might Be
The right place to report depends on where you lost it. We'll help you contact them all.
Hudson Police Department
If you lost something on the street, in a public place, or anywhere in town, the police keep a lost and found log. Call the main line and ask about items matching your description. We tell you exactly which precinct covers your loss location and what details to provide.
City Hall
City Hall at Warren Street also maintains records of items found in municipal spaces and can point you toward the right department. The City Clerk's Office can help verify if something has been turned in to the city.
Dutchess County Transit
Lost something on a local bus? Dutchess County Transit operates the fixed routes serving Hudson. Their lost and found team can check their inventory and hold items. We generate the exact information you need when you file a report.
Lost Pets
If you've lost a cat or dog, Animal Kind Hudson can help immediately. They maintain a lost pet network and work with local animal control. Call right away, post in community pet groups, and file a priority lost pet report to speed up your search across the Hudson Valley.

Ready to get your report out there?
The sooner you file, the sooner our team connects with the right offices and the sooner your report starts matching against new found items. Getting the word out today makes a real difference.
Report my lost item →Losing something in Hudson is frustrating. Your wallet might end up at the Police Department, your phone at a Dutchess County bus office, and your ring at one of the shops downtown, but there's no single system that searches all of them at once. You end up making separate calls, posting in multiple Facebook groups, and checking back repeatedly. ReportLost cuts through that.
When you file a report with us, we notify the local authorities and community channels that matter. But the real difference is what happens next: your report doesn't disappear after one day. It stays active, continuously cross-referencing new found items and posts for matches. You don't have to be the one refreshing lost and found groups every morning. We do that work for you, and alert you if a real lead appears.
